Approaching almost 50 hours into FFVII Remake and loving it!

**Mattrick** · 02-09-2021 11:16 AM

Picked up Bully: Scholarship Edition as it's a game I missed out on way back when. Oh shit and OkamiHD is on sale too. Might have to pick that one up as well.

I'm so conflicted because I love FF7, but I also hate the way they are approaching the remake. God knows when we will get the complete game.

I thought I heard they were going to do a Bully sequel, but I think it fell through.

I've been playing video games for a long time, I can't remember many segments as intense as the Slayer Gate battles in Doom Eternal. They legitimately give me anxiety.

I'm playing the game on Normal, I can't imagine how good you have to be at FPS to complete them in Very Hard. Sheesh.

The wait for the rest of the FFVII Remake will suck but I think it'll be well worth it.

Just picked up the remasters of Shenmue and Shenmue 2 for 16 bucks. Hells to the yes.

**fernandito** · 02-19-2021 01:32 PM

That Mortal Kombat trailer tho!?!?

**Mattrick** · 02-22-2021 01:27 AM

I'm at that point where after playing State of Decay 2 for 2 weeks, with a few games of Hockey, that I have no idea what I feel like playing. That's the problem of having 190 games on your console.

Not sure if I want hop back on a game...I'm at the start of Disc 2 of FF7, a bit into FF15, and just got War of the Chosen for XCOM 2. Or do I want to play something new like Control, Red Dead 2, AC: Origins, Dishonored 2? Or do I want to play something a bit more laid back like Planet Coaster, Cities Skylines, Sims 4 or Jurassic World Evolution? Or a simpler indie game like Spiritfarer, Night Call, Outer Wilds, or Kona?

Too many choices. I just scroll up and down my library for 30 mins and end up playing nothing lol

**fernandito** · 02-22-2021 07:45 AM

I like to switch things up when I play. If I finish an engrossing 100-hour RPG I'll probably follow it up with cute indie title, and then maybe a FPS after that.

Having said that, I think you'll really dig Control. One of the most unique stories I've played in recent years.

The Diablo 3 edition with the expansions was on sale I bought that. Been awhile since I played it.

**fernandito** · 02-24-2021 10:02 AM

PSN is having a sale on some damn good indie titles rn.

Yeah. It's one reason why Im glad Xbox doesn't have platinum. I can get 75% of the gamerscore and consider it 100% if it's only multiplayer left, like Tomb Raider. Im a lot more onboard if it's a multiplayer heavy game CoD or GoW

Does LiS play like Telltale's Walking Dead series?

I'd say somewhat but not exactly. I still have 2 on my HDD that I haven't gotten to yet.

The first game is my #1 game of all time, it was literally life-changing and such an unforgettable experience, which also left me in such a depressed state for a week. It emotionally destroyed me but also led me further down the path of self-discovery, for which I’ll be forever grateful. The prequel, Before the Storm, was great as well. The second game didn’t have that impact on me, nor did I expect it to. It was still an incredibly well-told and emotional story, but the story of the first game resonated with me more. Can’t wait to find out about this new game, the rumors have been all over the place. It’s supposed to be more of a 1 than a 2.
